Today, my mum told me that my sister's little kiddie swing wouldn't hold my weight. I told her she was being stupid, and went on anyway. A broken ankle and two pins in my elbow later, I'm willing to accept this. FML

So just to be sure I have this right, you: 1) Defied your mother 2) Told your mother SHE WAS STUPID 3) Broke your ankle and elbow because of your moronic behaviour Yup, sounds like you got exactly what you deserved.

You know what they say: mother knows best.

it's called a KIDDIE swing for a reason.

is there an age limit on it? I think not!

she seems to have a kiddie's brainpower, maybe she thought that counted

you could try bulimia for a while to prevent this in the future.

I usually like other FML refrenves but that was just ******* horrible.

Advice from America... LISTEN TO YOUR MUM!!! Gotta love them British. haha

two things, firstly you are American but yet used the Queen's English in the spelling of 'mum' secondly, majority of fml's are posted by Americans.

there wouldn't be an America if it wasn't for Britain, and just so you know, we think you're a disapointment.

You do know it wasn't just the British who helped America to become a country. France helped America to win the revolutionary war, if you think British only helped America to become a country I think you are a disappoint

Once I got laughed at by an american for calling ketchup tomatoe sauce. little did she know that like mom, the rest of the english speaking world uses the alternative queens version. Americans are to the rest of the world what hillbillies are to Americans

#48. America doesn't care what Britain thinks. We care about what you think as much as we care about the bison. What bison? Exactly. #54. Not all Americans are that dense... It's just that the idiots happen to be more attractive and get more exposure to the rest of the world.

@#48 Your spelling is a "disappointment" lol

Let me assure the rest of the FML community that Mystery_Machete does not speak for all Americans. He does, however, represent a sizable portion of the US population that thinks he's better than everyone else simply because of where he happens to live. Just keep in mind that nationalism is not an American invention. People loved their homelands long before the colonials booted the Native Americans off their lands. It's comments like this that give the US and its citizens a bad reputation worldwide.

#78. Coming from someone whose profile says "If you'd like to carry on an argument with me, remember that I'm smarter than you. And more popular. And better looking. If you can't handle that, just **** the **** off" means so much to me! I love hypocrites! And you're saying that the majority of people that 'represent' America are good representatives? No, they are not. Am I? No. Did I say I was? No. I'm merely saying that the stupid people attract more attention to the US than the intelligent people. On that note, your assumption that I think I am better than everyone because I'm American and that you automatically assume that I am male is disgusting. I used to waste time giving people like you lectures. But now, I'm keeping it succinct. Maybe next time, instead of getting off of your high horse for us lesser beings, you'll avoid getting on it in the first place.

Last I checked Britain isn't even located near Australia. You may want to go back to school and retake Geography.

and there wouldn't be a Great Britain if America didn't save their ass in WWII so STFU!!!

Not true. There still could have been an America without Britain, but we could be speaking Spanish or French instead of english. we weren't just founded by Britain. They just managed to collect certain colonies and make those said colonies so upset, they revolted =)

but... isn't it common sense that it wouldn't hold your weight? -_-

The only way you could have gotten those injuries would be if your mother beat you with the swing.

or maybe she flew off while swinging. duh

I hate people who don't understand written sarcasm.

Future Darwin Award candidate. Its nice to see kids setting such high goals^^
